    Flywheel identification

    I'm working on a 340 4-speed car that has a vibration. It's a 70 AAR Cuda. I'm wondering if it's obviously visible to see the difference between an externally balanced and internally balanced flywheel while in the car.

    Resurfaced lifters

    I've read people suggesting to have lifters resurfaced, but has anyone here used them? I hear people say it's fine, but I had a guy recently tell me the only time he had a lifter fail, it was a resurfaced set.
